A local woman is asking the public to send birthday cards to her ill Nana - who turns 99 this week.

Emma Parry made the appeal on social media - on behalf of her Nana Gladys.

She turns 99 on Sunday (Dec 19) - her granddaughter explains as she hasn't been very well lately, she would like to 'pick her up a bit'.

Emma says Gladys is very old school so loves receiving cards in the post.

If you'd like to send her a birthday message - you're asked to send a card to:

Copycat 29, Parliament Street, Ramsey,
Im8 1AT : for Gladys
